Q, but no A

By: Sean | Comments 1 Comment

In theory, our Q’s will be A’d once the transfer window opens, but that doesn’t mean we can’t look at them now:
Right back - OK, Riley sucks. I mean, I’m sorry, I’m sure he’s a nice guy and everything, but he’s just no good. I don’t know if it was the own goal [...]

Posting Blind - Quakes/Dips Post-Game

By: Sean | Comments 4 Comments

I watched the video highlights, and from that, here’s what I got:
* Like suzanne said in the previous post’s comments, the Quakes controlled the first half, and had the majority of the chances.
* My prediction skills were top notch
* Red Card Riley strikes again! (See below)
* Ronnie O played well, was in the majority of [...]

Quakes/Dips Pre-Game

By: Sean | Comments 4 Comments

I’ll be flying back to Portland during this match, so I won’t be able to watch it. Which may be a blessing in disguise. I’d like to say that the Quakes have the potential to continue its quest of at least one point per game out of the next four, but all we [...]

Anti-DC Propaganda

By: Sean | Comments 17 Comments

Why isn’t this talked about more? I’m not trying to be that offensive, and I am not calling DC, or their fans, or anything about them fascist. But when they were coming up with ideas for names/colors/logos/etc., was this not brought up? Alan I. Rothenberg, the namesake of the trophy given to [...]

YouTube Thursday/Song Of The Week Two-Fur

By: Sean | Comments 1 Comment

I’ve been listening to the soundtrack to the show “Class of 3000″. Its pretty fun, and the songs are really catchy (what more what you expect from Andre). Not at all Quake related, though you could say our defenders were some pretty cool cats last night in Utah.

BONUS SOCCER REFERENCE: Check out [...]

More Proof Positive That Edson Buddle Is God (RSL Post-Game)

By: Sean | Comments 2 Comments

As a player, I am all about creativity, vision, and other attacking attributes that Christopher Sullivan likes to repeat ad nauseum. I have never understood why someone would want to to make it their job to stop all of that. I angered hundreds of teammates throughout my “career” refusing to defend. And [...]

Where Did Our Rivalry Go?

By: Ian | Comments 8 Comments

A three-nil drubbing at the hands of your most despised enemy is enough to put any fan in a mood so sour that puppies and songbirds seem like good targets for a well-placed kick.  So bear with me if my vision is clouded by Saturday’s events.  It seems that Quakes fans everywhere, myself included, are consumed [...]

The Oakland Coliseum - Providing Away Matches Since 2008

By: Sean | Comments 4 Comments

I have been reading a lot the past couple days on how crappy the Coliseum was on Saturday. And this is not just one aspect, but many. Security, parking, entering the stadium, beer lines, gift shop, too far away from the field, etc. Personally, the only aspect of it that directly affected [...]
